What our clients say
Frequently Asked Questions
What causes septic systems to fail?
The primary causes of septic system failure are high volumes of activity and neglected maintenance. That is why routine maintenance is so critical to preserving the health and function of cesspools and septic systems. Regular pumping, treatments, and inspections prevent most failures before they start.
How does a septic system work?
A septic system collects household waste in an underground tank, where solids are broken down and liquids are transmitted to a dispersal field. For the system to function properly, there must be enough soil, a low-density system, and adequate distance between the dispersal field and the water table.
How much nitrogen does a healthy septic system remove?
A healthy septic system is capable of reducing more than 90 percent of the nitrogen from the pollutants inside the system. A failing system reduces only 10 to 40 percent, which means pollutants escape into the surrounding environment. This is a key reason failing systems on Long Island need prompt attention
Why do failing septic systems threaten Long Island's groundwater?
When a septic system fails, chemicals build up in the groundwater and can contaminate the ground and surface water that local communities rely on. Because Long Island draws its drinking water from underground aquifers, maintaining healthy septic systems directly protects local water quality.
What is a dispersal field?
A dispersal field, also called a leach field or drain field, is the area where liquid wastewater from a septic tank is released into the surrounding soil for natural filtration. It only works when there is enough soil and sufficient distance between the field and the water table, which is why proper system design matters.
What should I do if my septic system is failing?
Contact a septic professional promptly, because a failing system releases pollutants into the soil and groundwater and only gets worse with time. EZ Cesspool handles cesspool and septic repairs across Long Island and can determine whether the system needs maintenance, repair, or replacement. Emergency service is available 24/7.
